Flying with Turkish Airline

Let me introduce you to the airline that has lift me up me from Amsterdam to Istanbul then finally to Hong Kong. Turkish Airline!

Honestly I was scared and stressed out to be flying with Turkish Airline and to have a flight transition at Istanbul because of the current restless situation that is terrorizing the country. We obviously booked the tickets before the chaos. It was 2:00 AM when we arrived in Istanbul and my worrisome got replaced by my own sleepyness and perhaps grumpyness too. All I want is to buy some Turkish Delight and get as fast inside the airplane to get some zzz's.

I also watched Zootopia on the airplan and man, what a lovely movie! I have re-atched the last 30 min. part at least twice already. A total recommendation!

Yes please!

We received a nice goodiebag in our 2nd flight after transition. O boy! Such a luxury! Inside this bag contains a pair of slippers (lifesavers), sleeping mask, earplugs, socks (with rubber soles), toothbrush and toothpaste and lipbalm. O boy o boy such a pampering! Even in the economy seat.

Food

For the air meal I have requested a vegetarian meal which is: pasta in tomato sauce and a little bit of cheese. Then there are two side foods in little bowls: fruit and hummus. The pasta was really bad. Some pasta were undercooked and some were dry. The hummus was weird, it tasted to nutty but I do appreciate the
fresh fruit bowl which is the only bowl I finished completely.

After the meal, I got really really REALLY stomach ache and cramps. And the thought of being stuck in the sky in a flying aluminium tube where the only escape is this teeny tiny toilet is not fun. Luckily the stomach ache went away by itself, whew,
but I am so blaming the
horrible pasta for all of this.

The coffee smelled good but was not strong enough.

The very first thing I got in HK is this rose latte from 7-Eleven. It was nice but I shouldn`t have added extra sugar because it was sweet already...

I have also booked a long flight with Turkish and I am really stressed about Istanbul transition. It's a relief to read from you that everything was good there. About the airlines I have heard from friends that is one of the best in the world! I wish you have a great time in Hong Kong and show us beautiful pictures :)

EN Have you heard of beauty
brand Vine Vera before? No, me neither until I was in London when I passed a shop/spa and a
salesman lured me in with a free moisture day cream sample. And the salesman whom is a
foreigner immediately turned into a cunning selling mode by letting me try on
Vine Vera’s peeling treatment on my hand, telling me how big my pores are
(gee thanks), the discounts and all the ‘promising’ results and glory of Vine
Vera. It was like a home shopping TV
channel but then in real life. Firstly, Vine Vera is hella expensive! And the salesman was not
giving up in selling me the ‘resveratrol merlot peeling’. I was trying to nope-my-way-out
to all his offer and he finally offered me the peeling for £50 instead £100. Along
with a free hand cream, a free spa facial treatment (didn’t go due my short
stay in London),
a spatula and another handful of free samples - I surrendered. This is probably my most
expensive peeling yet. The Vine Vera resveratrol

A year back I`ve made myself a list of intentions for the year 2017.
Lets see how I did it shall we?» 2017 intentions This is an `oliebol`. A traditional sweet Dutch snack that`s eaten around NYE!BloggingAnother full year of blogging full of topics such as food (obvious) followed by recipes with a new category added to called `healthy & sugar free`. This is a category I want to be better at it in 2018 because yes, indulging foods are great but I`m also fond of my health and creating a healthy lifestyle. And besides it is challenging too and if you manage to create something delicious that you can eat away guiltfree that`s double win!
Other than sharing recipes I have shared a few amounts of DIY`s too, interesting hotspots that is worth mentioning, travel posts of long or short stays and some peeks of my personal life.

It was a full year blogging but somewhere halfway I have decided to release 1 to 2 blogposts a week and let go of my almost daily blogging.
With my fulltime job + ke…
